As I mentioned in an earlier post, the story is out on the Easter Bunny. Here's a follow up:
On Easter morning, before church started, Sarah told me: "Mom, you were a good Easter Bunny. You did a good job."
I smiled, thanked her, and thought we were done. Have I learned nothing over the past 14 years?
During the sacrament (when everyone is quiet and prayerful) she said: "Did you wear bunny ears when you put out the baskets?"
Since we do own bunny ears, and I just wanted her to be quiet, I nodded yes and said "Ssshh!"
Thinking I had dodged a bullet, I relaxed slightly, but about a minute later she asked: "Mom, did you have a bunny tail?"
I have no idea what people thought we were talking about, and I probably don't want to know. "No!" I whispered. "Please, stop talking during sacrament!"
"But why not? Why didn't you wear a tail?" she practically shouted. At this point, I just shot her mom death-eye daggers, and thankfully, she took the hint.
I can only hope that her voice doesn't carry as well as I think it does, and that her speech is not intelligible to the casual listener. Or maybe we're just the church-time entertainment.

Oh wow! This was hilarious! Would've been funny to be sitting in the pew behind you. ;)
